    Placements: If our course is in the arts, then there are no placements related to it; people go to further fields like professor, IPS, IAS. The rest of us prepare for most of our courses according to our subjects. We still have a lot to do in life, which means further studies. Most of the students pursue a Master's, and the rest continue their studies through Ph.D. etc.
    Infrastructure: There are plenty of facilities here, and there is Wi-Fi in the college. There is also a library in which all books, etc., are available. There is a canteen near the library where you don't get much good food. You get samosas and some other snacks. The college does not have its own hostel. According to me, everyone lives in private PGs.
    Faculty: Our teachers here are good, and their teaching quality is also good. The course curriculum is correct, and everything else is okay. Semester exams are conducted from the main office of the college, the Delhi University branch. Semester exam difficulty is not great.
    Other: We have the most off-day scholars here. Many things can be improved, such as the way the course is taught. The rest of the events at the fest are all good.

    Best campus, average faculty.
    Placements: Maitreyi has a good placement cell, and it has got companies like Deloitte and many other firms, but the thing is, it doesn't get companies for B.A. students, especially B.A. programme students. The placement is totally based towards companies only opting for B.Com students. Although for internships, there are good companies and good internship opportunities being shared with B.A. students on a weekly basis, and I myself have internships through Maitreyi. But placements are of no hope in Maitreyi for B.A. students.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure varies across the 2 buildings. The Science block has a good infrastructure, but the B.A. and B.Com students suffer with old desks and non-functioning fans. The hostel is alright, really and has a good infrastructure. The library is the most efficient in Maitreyi, as per my view, it's 2 floors with a very vast area and a separate e-library with Apple desktops. All the books are available almost every time. Medical facilities are also quite good, provided with a separate room, and the nurse and doctor are quite polite. Sports and games are the heart of Maitreyi. It's ace in sports.
    Faculty: The faculty for my course is quite good, except for a few. For major papers like econometrics and optimisation, our teacher is requisite, and it's all her that students could ace such difficult subjects. However, this year, it is a different syllabus, which wasn't completed by another faculty for 2 subjects, and we had to give our exams. Out of 4 units, she only completed 1, and we had to study on our own and give exams.
    Other: I opted for this course because of my interest in economics, but on the side, I also wanted to learn English and had an interest in content writing. The crowd differs vastly across courses. For B.Com, it's alright, but B.A. and B.Sc. differ. The campus of Maitreyi is lovely. The garden and the fest are what make it worth it to have a life in Maitreyi.

    Absolutely satisfied because of the faculty.
    Placements: There are my friends who have been selected for the Times of India editor, in Tata Power, in Wipro, and in Hitachi. There are many other opportunities, such as being the president of the department and representing your college in almost all the universities in Delhi.
    Infrastructure: The hostel is fully safe and secure for girls as they have the best staff to ensure the security of all girls staying there, in every field, like health, food, education, and entertainment. The best part is that the campus is surrounded by the serene beauty of nature with the wonderful voices of peacocks.
    Faculty: From my point of view, my course teachers are the best in the college, as I was totally new to the subject of sociology, and they just taught it like a cake walk. The assignments and field work arranged by them gave us the opportunity to observe the society more closely.
    Other: I'm a graduate of 2025, B.A. Hons Sociology. The department's fest is the best, and the seminars conducted by the teachers are very knowledgeable. The teachers are highly professional in their subjects.

    The college is not too good, not too bad.
    Placements: Not many students from our batch have been placed as of yet. Generally, the students who have commerce in their GE or had commerce in school are the ones that companies prefer. Top recruiting companies for our course are Deloitte, KPMG, J. P. Morgan, EY, Accenture, etc.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in our college, but it barely works. Some classrooms are decent, some are below average. Canteen contact keeps on changing, currently it is very okayish. The crowd is fine, the faculty is decent, and the greenery is amazing, especially during the spring season.
    Faculty: Some teachers are helping, but there are also some Teachers who are very rude as well. We feel so scared to even approach them. Some teachers are very kind, and they even understand our case that students are also going through a lot, while others just care about themselves.
    Other: I am pursuing economics honours, and I truly believe that it is the cream of the humanities. It gives you insight into how the economy of any country works, which has always fascinated me.

    Supportive faculty members, vibrant campus, and enriching english curriculum.
    Placements: I pursued B.A. (Hons) English at Maitreyi College. Around 20-30% of students from my batch were placed, as many opted for higher studies or competitive exams. The highest package was around 6 LPA, while the average was about 3 LPA to 4 LPA. Top recruiters included TCS, Wipro, and a few publishing houses. Nearly 40% of students got internships in content writing, editing, NGOs, and startups like Internshala, The Sprint, and Outlook. Roles like content creator, copywriter, and editorial assistant were common. College placement cell was active and helpful, especially for students who actively participated in workshops and skill-building activities.
    Infrastructure: Maitreyi College offered a peaceful academic environment with well-lit classrooms, a great library with rich literary resources, and good Wi-Fi access. While specific labs were not needed for English. The seminar hall and digital classrooms support presentations and events well. The library was spacious and perfect for study hours. Although the college did not provide an in-house hostel, students find nearby PGs with decent facilities. Canteen served hygienic and budget-friendly food. Medical facilities were basic but the response was there in emergencies. Sports facilities were available for games like basketball, cricket, and yoga. Students were encouraged to participate in college sports events.
    Faculty: Faculty members in the English department at Maitreyi College were highly qualified, supportive, and passionate about literature. Most teachers bring deep academic insight and encourage open discussions, making classes interactive. The curriculum was updated, covering both classical and modern texts, literary theory, and writing skills, which helped in building critical thinking, though not strictly. It was industry-ready. Exams were moderately difficult, students who attend lectures and stay consistent generally perform well. The pass percentage was high, and internal assessment also contributed to the final grade, reducing pressure during final exams. Overall, the academic atmosphere was motivating and student-friendly.
    Other: I chose B.A. (Hons) English at Maitreyi College because of my interest in literature and the college's good reputation under Delhi University. The course encouraged creativity, analysis, and communication. Fests like Rhapsody were lively, and the campus crowd was diverse and welcoming. The college was well-connected via metro and bus routes. The surroundings were safe and peaceful. Extracurricular activities were active, with various societies to join. However, more industry exposure or career guidance could improve the course. Overall, the experience was academically enriching and personally fulfilling.

    It's like a safe heaven for women.
    Placements: I was placed through DU, not my college. Average package offered was hardly 5 LPA. Top recruiting company was Paytm. Everyone got an internship, but it was unpaid. Commerce students have better chances (15-20% placed), while Arts and Science placements are rare or almost non-existent. Most students opt for higher education (Master's, UPSC, CAT, etc. ) or seek off-campus jobs.
    Infrastructure: I love the greenery. Canteen was amazing. Had fun. Library is spacious, air-conditioned, and has a good collection of academic books, journals, magazines, and newspapers. There are dedicated reading zones and a computer section for online research and DU e-resources.
    Faculty: Teachers don't know the syllabus of the 4th year NEP, even though college starts in 2 days. It's quite sad. Semester exams are easy. In departments like Political Science, English, Psychology, Botany, and Zoology, the faculty is particularly reputed. They often use a blend of traditional and digital teaching methods (presentations, Google Classroom, discussions) and support students in research papers, internships, and competitions.
